Little things

Hallelujah! A fantastic book about St Therese life. Have listened to this twice now and will listen to again.

Beautiful Soul!

Saint Teresa is a great soul, and her life is a testament of pure love.

Finally! The perfect narrator for this grand Saint

The brilliant contribution Mr. Benjamin Crow offers in the telling of this incredible Saint’s life is fantastic! I love that it took a man to tell this woman Saint’s beautiful life story. I loved reading the book and continued to try to find an audible option that didn’t turn this Saint’s life into a children’s story time hour. Listening to this voice actor bring the listener into St. Therese’s mind as she wrote it, is an absolute treasure! From the death of her precious Mother, to entering Carmel, and so much more between and after, is just an incredible performance. Every young parent should listen to this masterpiece and bring it into the home to teach the entire family about love, love of family, the blessed Mother, and our Lord Jesus Christ. I pray that there will be billions of families like the Martin’s in the very desperate times ahead.

Odd voice choice

For a storybsuch as this where the character of the autobiography is a young French woman, I would think a female voice (with a French accent) would be the best choice. instead we get a male voice

Love

Nothing that I disliked. Pace was good, reading was clear....would recommend to others....inspirational and beautiful
